Kazakh Startups in the USA

• How realistic is it for a Kazakh startup to obtain investments in the USA? 
• Should one seek investors abroad?
• Are there successful examples of Kazakh startups in the USA?

These questions concern many entrepreneurs. Indeed, the development of Kazakh startups in America requires more effort than in their homeland, but the returns can be significantly higher. Firstly, foreign investors are eager to invest in promising projects, so with a well-developed working idea, one can find a good sponsor. Secondly, a successful startup launched in the USA will gain international market recognition much faster.

So, if you want to amaze the world with an interesting innovation, don't hesitate to seek investments from American business angels. Moreover, there are precedents confirming that dealing with Kazakh startups is advantageous. From 2014 to 2018, several of the most successful investments can be recalled:

• The company Scentbird raised $3 million, allowing it to open a successful perfume sales business.
• One million dollars was invested in the development of the Kazakh fitness bracelet HealBe.
• The Kazakh project Easy Ten received financial support of $125,000, which facilitates easy learning of foreign languages.
• The startup Linguatrip was allocated $100,000, and this project is also Kazakh.

These and other examples demonstrate that mutually beneficial cooperation is not just possible; it is actively practiced. In general, there are several reasons to turn to American investors.

• Large investments. Investors in the USA invest substantial amounts in promising enthusiasts, allowing you to engage fully in your passion.
• Access to the foreign market. A company that conquers America finds it easier to enter the European Union and other developed countries. In Kazakhstan, things are still more complicated.
• Opportunities for further work. Business angels typically monitor the development of their projects, and successful startups often become part of larger companies. This provides access to new technologies, training, and networking with other talented researchers and entrepreneurs.
• Fame. Startups that become famous in America quickly win customer loyalty, while successful Kazakh projects require additional advertising.

How to Obtain Investments in the USA?

If you have decided to seek financial assistance from American investors, having a cool idea is not enough; you must present it correctly. Only by capturing the investor's interest can you expect support. So, what do you need?

• A demanded product or idea. Forget about local projects; successful entrepreneurs only invest in what people worldwide will eagerly buy.
• An innovation. A product that doesn't yet exist. Hundreds of startups try to refine or copy existing projects, but the label "new" in the title doesn't mean you've done something original. If a similar product is already on the market and, moreover, has a cheap Chinese equivalent, forget about it. Don't work on another social network or yet another messenger; instead, find something genuinely creative.
• Profitability. Only a small fraction of investors are willing to work on the prospect; the vast majority seek to earn a return as quickly as possible. Therefore, when developing your business plan, pay special attention to how quickly your project will recoup its investment. 
• A cohesive, enthusiastic team. People who are passionately dedicated to their project tend to achieve success more often than merely detached professionals.
• A complete set of documents. You must show that you are serious, so the investor should see not only the theoretical side of the project but also the practical one: all necessary documentation from registration to marketing plans in English.

As a rule, most talented and ambitious startups stumble precisely on the bureaucratic aspects of the matter. Additionally, few know how to find investors to present their product.
